Timing belt pulleys come in many styles
Pulleys for small-pitch toothed timing belts offer positive, efficient power transmission for shaft drives, without slip or backlash and virtually no vibration.
An extensive range of styles and sizes of pulleys for small-pitch toothed timing belts, available from Stock Drive Products, offer positive, efficient power transmission for shaft drives, without slip or backlash and virtually no vibration Designated as the A 6A 3, A 6C 3, A 6J 3, A 6M 3 and A 6Z 3 series, such pulleys are designed to operate with synchronous toothed belts that are finding numerous applications in machine tools, mowers, business machines, copiers and printers where they transmit power efficiently in small spaces with minimum noise

The process of selecting small inch size drive components for new prototypes or production applications just became easier.
Furthermore, these small-pitch pulleys and timing belts permit synchronising shaft rotations and are also useful in high-reduction drives where there is need to improve the wrap-around capabilities of belts.
Pulley styles include double-flanged, single-flanged and flangeless pulleys, as well as hubbed and hubless.
The pulleys are designed for 0.25 and 0.375in wide belts, with a 0.2in pitch.
Number of grooves range from 10 grooves with a 0.637in pitch diameter to 72 grooves with a 4.564in pitch diameter.
Pulley bores range from 0.1875 to 0.5in.
Materials include aluminium alloy, clear anodised; steel, black oxide; moulded glass fibre with reinforced nylon or Lexan; and Delrin.
Generally, the pulleys are retained with set screws.
